So, today I’m visiting Riverley to chat with Emmy and Sofia. Bradley’s complaining about the smell of paint, Lucy’s sitting on my foot, and Kitty’s sprawled out on the rug, snoring. Just another day in the Black household. Emmy: Chocolate eclair? Fresh from Paris this morning. EN: Don’t mind if I do. So, where did […]
Originally, I planned to write two series for Blackwood – Blackwood Security, set mainly in the United States, and Blackwood UK, set in… You’ve guessed it, the UK (that’ll be coming in the summer).

Black: *Shrugs* Figured I should do something I was good at. Nate thought the same way. EN: You didn’t consider something a little less dangerous? […]
The other day, I was reading my reviews on Amazon (I know, I know—I should avoid them, but they’re just there), and one stood out that got me thinking: I did enjoy the book, but there was far too much use of the f word. This word was overdone and for me, it popped up […]
